Cons

The MSN TV 2 Internet and Media Player is a set-top box which connects wirelessly to a PC to enable media-streaming and web-surfing on a television. An MSN TV Service subscription is required, costing at least $100/year. With the included wireless keyboard, the user can surf the web or send and receive email on a television, and do so while watching TV on screens that support picture-in-picture. The device also streams pictures, audio, and video files from a connected PC, but recognizes a limited range of file formats. Another limitation noted by many users is the tendency of the keyboard interface to miss keystrokes.
